Chicory French Patisserie – Menteng Jakarta

The booming of Jakarta’s collection of ‘desserts only’ places is a sign of our increasing appreciation of Culinary Arts, although not many if these places really deserved to be given such title. My visit to Chicory French’s Patisserie was unforgettable. It’s not only for the incredible taste of the cakes but also for passion and dedication on each and every beautiful tiny pastries that they created. The place itself is very cozy and minimalist. A great place to just sit back and enjoy the fine sweet (and salty) treats they offer.

Quiche (IDR 60.000): French Brie with sun dried tomato,red peppers and mushroom with French salad with creamy dressing on the side. Tasty rich quiche with all the good ingredients you can taste.

Fresh Raspberry cheesecake (IDR 55.000): Probably one of the best french cheesecakes in Jakarta.The cheesecake was light and airy while the outside crust was crunchy.

Scone (IDR 25.000) : I love scones and this one even better.It’s lighter than other scones I’ve eaten in Jakarta and had Date Palm bits inside. It’s really good.

Caramel Hazelnut (IDR 28.000): Gorgeous and tasty too.The chocolate was rich and when you bite it,you’ve got that sticky and salty caramel layer in the bottom.Yummm!

Cointreau Buttercream (IDR 25.000): Although you couldn’t really taste yhe Cointreau, this one was also the winner.Light creamy inside, crunchy sweet orange flavored sprinkles on the outside.
